The Sunday Times and ARD say their information comes from more than 12,000 blood tests of 5,000 athletes, between 2001 and 2012, 800 of whom have had at least one “abnormal” result at some point in their careers.

The IAAF, which has defended its drugs testing procedures strongly and refutes suggestions it has turned a blind eye to doping, says it is cooperating with the independent World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) in an investigation into the allegations.

An FBI image shows fireworks tubes found in a backpack that was allegedly disposed of by friends of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and his now-deceased brother used parts from Christmas lights and model cars to build the bombs that they allegedly detonated near the finish line of the Boston Marathon, federal prosecutors said in a court filing May 21.

Former Boston Police Commissioner Davis said his sense is that there was a larger network of individuals or terrorist groups involved in the attack, which resulted in the deaths of three and serious or permanent injuries, notably loss of limbs, for many others. “These were very powerful bombs,” Former Boston Police Commissioner Edward Davis III offered an insider’s view of the Boston Marathon bombings and its aftermath during a talk May 30 that drew about 500 people to the Colonial Theatre. No one else has been charged with participating in the bombings, and prosecutors wrote May 21 that Tsarnaev admitted his own role in the blasts under questioning, but “steadfastly denied” that anyone else was involved. Davis gave the sixth annual Mona Sherman Memorial Lecture, which is associated with the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Berkshire Community College. Davis left his job in Boston in September 2013 and earlier this year joined WBZ-TV News in Boston as a security analyst.
